Character Analysis of Young Goodman Brown

In an essay of no less than 2 1/2 pages and no more than 4, write an essay based on a character from one of the short stories we are studied for class.

In writing the overall essay, you may want to look at a character from how others see them and discuss whether that outside perspective is accurate.

Is the town’s perception of Emily accurate or does the story suggest a different kind of persona/character?

You can also look at a big event in the character’s life and discuss how it may have shaped them.
